176: The truth of the secret realm, Master Xuehe

Although Lin Yulian's face was pale, she said, not to be outdone, "Fourth Brother, I can do it. I am now a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator."

Lin Yucheng said, "Silly girl, you watch our rear. Be careful of Cultivators attacking us from behind."

The 'teammates' behind you are the most terrifying. A novice lacking combat experience still doesn't understand this principle.

Lin Yulian had been well protected in Cloud Mist Mountain and had never experienced such a scene.

However, she was still very talented. Hearing what her Fourth Brother said, she immediately nodded firmly.

Lin Yucheng, Lin Yumo, and Lin Jing no longer divided their attention and focused all their attention on the Yao Beasts in front of them.

The same was true for other small groups of forces; they chose to unite against external threats in this situation.

【Vine Binding Talisman】

【Water Prison Talisman】

Hundreds of High Grade second-tier Talismans were thrown out by Lin Yucheng, without him showing any sign of distress.

A large number of vines and water areas were generated, controlling the group of Yao Beasts.

Lin Yongmao had newly drawn a large number of High Grade second-tier Talismans, specifically Vine Binding Talismans and Water Prison Talismans. It was a pity that both of these Talismans were primarily for control.

Lin Yucheng was going to clear a dungeon, and Yongmao stuffed many of them into his hands.

When the other Cultivator small groups saw this scene, their jaws dropped.

When did second-tier Talismans become so worthless?

This singleTake action was worth tens of thousands of Spirit Stones!

Had the Lin Family truly become so prosperous?

All the Yao Beasts were controlled. The three Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Lin Family seized this rare opportunity to use their killing moves to eliminate them one by one, without showing any mercy.

Lin Yucheng's Zhanjin Sword flew in front of the Cultivator named Li Dezhao and cut him in half with one sword.

Only then did the red light in his eyes dissipate, and then completely dim.

The Flying Sword attacked continuously, and the other few mutated Loose Cultivators also died under Lin Yucheng's sword.

When the other Loose Cultivator small groups saw the Lin Family Cultivators' fierce offensive, they also quickly began to bravely kill Yao Beasts.

They hadn't expected this Secret Realm to be so difficult, and this was only the first obstacle they had encountered.

To be precise, this might not even count as the first obstacle.

All that remained were mutated Yao Beasts. Red light flickered in the eyes of these Yao Beasts, and red light also surrounded their bodies, increasing their combat power by more than double their previous strength.

The 【Vine Binding Talisman】 and 【Water Prison Talisman】 had a good control effect, but their duration was limited. Some Yao Beasts had already begun to break free, including the three second-tier Yao Beasts.

"Not good…"

"Ah, no…"

Screams continued to echo, as these Loose Cultivators were killed by the Yao Beasts that had broken free from control.

Ordinary Loose Cultivators were different from Family disciples; they lacked combat methods and handy Magical Artifacts, suffering greatly during combat.

Lin Yucheng continuously wielded the Zhanjin Sword to kill enemies, showcasing the sharpness of metal to its fullest.

His combat talent and combat intuition were both extremely outstanding, but after all, there were too many Yao Beasts in front of him. It was easy for him to protect the few Lin Family members, but difficult to protect everyone.

It is worth mentioning that two other Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators also displayed impressive combat power.

They were Lin Yumo and Chen Sichen.

Lin Yumo, of course, goes without saying. He was the only Foundation Establishment Stage Middle Stage Cultivator present, with the highest Cultivation Realm.

However, he primarily Cultivated an Earth Spiritual Root, lacking effective offensive means, making his killing of Yao Beasts seem somewhat weak.

Chen Sichen was different.

Like his father, City Lord Chen He, he primarily Cultivated a Fire Spiritual Root.

His second-tier fire attribute Spell, 【Fire Rain Spell】, was used with superb skill, and he completely disregarded the consumption of his own spiritual power, as if it were endless.

The Fire Rain Spell covered the Yao Beast group over a large area, and each time the fire rain fell, it would take the lives of several low-tier Yao Beasts.

…

Deep within the Secret Realm, at the bottom of the Blood Lake.

A strange black-red Demonic Core continuously absorbed the blood fiend Devilish Qi from the Blood Lake. With each absorption, its color became a shade darker.

This extremely peculiar scene was not seen by anyone, because the few small groups from Qingyang were still fighting mutated Yao Beasts on the grassland.

It seemed that after absorbing enough blood fiend Devilish Qi, this black-red Demonic Core developed self-awareness, and a faint phantom emerged from it.

"Hahahaha…"

"I never thought that I, Blood River Ancestor, would be resurrected. The Blood Devil Seed preserved a trace of my Divine Soul, and now, having absorbed enough blood fiend Devilish Qi, I have finally awakened.

It's just that I am still too weak now and have no Physical Body. I'll just Possess a Physical Body and slowly recover!"

The blood-red light pillar was activated by Blood River Ancestor. After his Divine Soul awakened, he used the blood-red light pillar to attract Qingyang Cultivators to come and seek treasures.

His actual purpose was to find a suitable Physical Body for himself.

As long as the Possession succeeded, he, Blood River Ancestor, could live another life!

There is a Law of Possession in the Cultivation world.

Firstly, each Cultivator only has one chance to Possess.

Secondly, Possession can only succeed if the Divine Soul strength is higher than the original body's Divine Soul strength.

Blood River Ancestor was originally a Soul Transformation Stage Demonic Cultivator. Because the Cultivation Technique he Cultivated was too evil and caused too much slaughter, he was jointly hunted down by the powerful figures within Xuan Yun Territory.

At the last moment, he abandoned everything he had, including his Nascent Soul, Clone, and the vast majority of his Divine Soul.

He only left behind a Demonic Path seed, dormant in this desolate place, waiting to germinate.

"Let me take another look to see if there's a suitable candidate."

The situations in various parts of the Secret Realm appeared in the Demonic Core, like a mirror.

"They are all inferior goods. Once the Possession succeeds, these ants will all become my blood food."

Blood River Ancestor had already set his sights on Chen Sichen. Relatively speaking, Chen Sichen was the most suitable candidate.

His Spiritual Root was Fire and Wood dual-attribute, and his dual Spiritual Root Aptitude was not too bad.

He was also handsome and had a very sturdy body with vigorous blood Qi.

The most valuable thing was that he was a possessor of a special Physique.

This was Chen Sichen's secret, known only to him and his father, City Lord Chen He—that is, his special Physique.

Chen Sichen's special Physique—the Primordial Spirit Physique—could nurture a Primordial Spirit Crystal Core within his body, allowing his internal spiritual power to reach an inexhaustible level.

This was different from a Golden Core, but it was similar to the effect of a Golden Core.

In other words, while others had one Golden Core, he was equivalent to having two.

"Heh heh, Heaven still favors me. The difficulty of finding a special Physique is almost comparable to finding a Heavenly Spiritual Root Cultivator."

Blood River Ancestor sighed. The more he looked at Chen Sichen, the more satisfied he became.

"As for this Cultivator… it's a pity he's a bit too old."

The Cultivator Blood River Ancestor was commenting on was Lin Yucheng. Lin Yucheng displayed impressive combat talent, especially his combat intuition, which even Blood River Ancestor, a Soul Transformation Stage Cultivator, praised.

However, his goal had not changed; he was still preparing to Possess Chen Sichen.

"Don't harm this precious body. By Cultivating the 《Blood Sea Demonic Technique with the Primordial Spirit Physique, what difficulty is there in returning to the Incarnation Realm? I can even try to break through to higher Realms."

Blood River Ancestor's phantom was unconsciously gesticulating wildly.
